Science on the Slopes Environmental Education & Wellness Program

Our Science on the Slopes Environmental Education & Wellness Program aims to foster outdoor educational experiences for children, utilizing the trails and facilities of the ski area. Additionally, we are very excited to launch our collection of Wachusett Mountain resource material, which explores a variety of topics, including Earth Science, Physical Science, Life Science, Engineering & Technology and Health & Wellness.
